Jim.....did ya check with Freddy Rabbat in Brazil?......I think he was keeping track of those cars, as he owns one.

Hi Bill,

Yes years ago when his web site was up, but there was no current or new info on location or current owner.

Hope all is well in Lincoln.

Best regards,
Jim

James,

The following info is in the Registry VIN database. Linus Pauling Jr is shown as an owner and was active on this site a few years ago.

Hope this helps.

Joris Koenig in the Netherlands owns an A carrera cab and might also know something.

I was able to locate Mr. Richard Roeder and he said, at the time 10 years ago the Carrera was as in the picture black exterior and green interior. From what I gather the Carrera was sold and might have been sold to Euro Collectables or another Costa Mesa car broker and then once again resold. Funny how these rare cars seem to just vanish into a collection and not get any exposure.

I did get contacted about a year and half ago by another Costa Mesa car broker and he said, he knew who owned the Carrera, but would not divolge any info. Gave me a very suspect story (borderline scam) and basically tried to con me, falling back on my distrust for car brokers and dealers, I basically told him to get lost.

James, why do you need the owners contact details..

Hi Joris,

PM sent.

Richard Roeder had some great cars, including the best preservation 1965 911.

It’s crazy that Linus Pauling owned it (I assume the nobel winning scientist).

[Martin Benade]

I think it may have been his son.

Linus Pauling Jr. is alive and well in Honolulu, Hi.
